I’m Johnny Xiao, a senior 3D artist in the game and film industry.<h1>What’s the story behind your work? Why did you decide to recreate Spengler from Ghostbusters?</h1>I first saw Ghostbusters back in middle school, and it totally stuck with me. I was also super into movies like Starship Troopers, Back to the Future, and The Fifth Element. These movies all played a significant role in inspiring me to pursue a career in this industry.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/454e82f2e4014cebba3ddc8836f6a5d0johnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-12.jpg" alt="454e82f2e4014cebba3ddc8836f6a5d0" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="454e82f2e4014cebba3ddc8836f6a5d0" data-width="1920" data-height="1440"><h1>As an experienced Marvelous Designer user, did you apply any unconventional techniques or workflows in this project to enhance the realism or efficiency of the garment creation?</h1>For this project, I mainly followed a traditional workflow. However, I made extensive use of internal lines to create memory creases, which significantly enhanced the realism of the clothing.I also gathered a lot of references, especially worn garments, to study the subtle details of wrinkling and curling. For example, instead of letting the collar completely droop, I added a slight lift and tension to make it look more natural and lived-in.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/50ae7bafeb85469087b249db24fbb5cbjohnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-14.jpg" alt="50ae7bafeb85469087b249db24fbb5cb" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="50ae7bafeb85469087b249db24fbb5cb" data-width="1920" data-height="1152"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/7bef7d3c2adf48c8ad727a509dd6184cJohnnyXiao6.jpg" alt="7bef7d3c2adf48c8ad727a509dd6184c" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="7bef7d3c2adf48c8ad727a509dd6184c" data-width="1494" data-height="1239"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/c0b174ced7874627ae208dd9e7fb23c8JohnnyXiao7.jpg" alt="c0b174ced7874627ae208dd9e7fb23c8" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="c0b174ced7874627ae208dd9e7fb23c8" data-width="1494" data-height="1239"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/7aea9987240745229199958d6bf710d1johnnyXiao1.jpg" alt="7aea9987240745229199958d6bf710d1" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="7aea9987240745229199958d6bf710d1" data-width="2132" data-height="1252"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/4f55fae2cc9b46e4895bf26e26f09658JohnnyXiao2.png" alt="4f55fae2cc9b46e4895bf26e26f09658" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="4f55fae2cc9b46e4895bf26e26f09658" data-width="785" data-height="471"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/0c3b3704c5e54feb936c4d3e6ebe64d2Johnnyxiao1.png" alt="0c3b3704c5e54feb936c4d3e6ebe64d2" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="0c3b3704c5e54feb936c4d3e6ebe64d2" data-width="783" data-height="425"><h1>What part of the process do you enjoy the most, and what do you find most challenging?</h1>Whenever I work on a personal project, I aim to make it better than the last.The biggest challenge for me is achieving a high level of realism in Marvelous Designer, which requires a great deal of patience and attention to detail. While many artists tend to add more wrinkles to their garments, I believe that subtraction is often the key—matching folds precisely to real-world references is both the most difficult and the most rewarding part of the process.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/91a61522fc2c47e28b8b0916f9c7759fJohnnyXiao2.jpg" alt="91a61522fc2c47e28b8b0916f9c7759f" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="91a61522fc2c47e28b8b0916f9c7759f" data-width="2767" data-height="1242"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/f47976a76eef480fb6eba97e39722854johnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-20.jpg" alt="f47976a76eef480fb6eba97e39722854" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="f47976a76eef480fb6eba97e39722854" data-width="1920" data-height="757"><h1>In your opinion, what is Marvelous Designer’s greatest strength in character creation? How did you leverage that in this project?</h1>In traditional workflows, we often relied on sculpting in ZBrush to achieve realistic clothing, which certainly works well.However, Marvelous Designer significantly improves production efficiency by allowing for rapid garment modeling and the generation of natural-looking folds. These folds can be adjusted in real time and respond dynamically to movement, creating a much more lifelike result.In today’s fast-paced production environment, this is a major advantage. With the current speed of GPU-based simulation and improved stability, quick iteration has become much more feasible, enabling the creation of highly realistic assets with greater efficiency.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/084ecda70e524b00b1c271a74e04edc7JohnnyXiao5.jpg" alt="084ecda70e524b00b1c271a74e04edc7" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="084ecda70e524b00b1c271a74e04edc7" data-width="2018" data-height="1287"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/ac559a5aa39342a78ec553347154bc44johnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-16.jpg" alt="ac559a5aa39342a78ec553347154bc44" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="ac559a5aa39342a78ec553347154bc44" data-width="1920" data-height="741"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/4d44edb926504a768d511027307b3010johnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-19.jpg" alt="4d44edb926504a768d511027307b3010" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="4d44edb926504a768d511027307b3010" data-width="1920" data-height="1983"><h1>For artists already familiar with Marvelous Designer, how would you recommend further unlocking its potential in character creation?</h1>As I mentioned earlier, efficiency is everything today.It’s not about working harder, but working smarter—finding ways to produce high-quality results without spending excessive time manually refining every garment.Marvelous Designer isn’t a difficult tool to learn, though many are initially discouraged by the pattern-making process. Fortunately, there’s now a wealth of free online assets available. For example, the CONNECT store offers a wide range of free assets. You can modify these to suit your character, allowing you to quickly create high-quality models with minimal effort.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/fa8379b9afa44674a14ea27084941f4fCONNECT%20store.png" alt="fa8379b9afa44674a14ea27084941f4f" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="fa8379b9afa44674a14ea27084941f4f" data-width="632" data-height="507"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202509/82276b26a47540da8e2d60799e041cc1/images/f1e0608c9f0c41b8b153e3a144e9647cjohnny-xiao-zhiqiang-xiao-untitled-1.jpg" alt="f1e0608c9f0c41b8b153e3a144e9647c" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="f1e0608c9f0c41b8b153e3a144e9647c" data-width="1920" data-height="1180"><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnny-xiao-183bb724/">Linkedin</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.artstation.com/johnnyxiao">Artstation</a>

How did you configure the fabric’s Physical Properties in Marvelous Designer (MD) for such an intense dance simulation?</h1>When simulating intense movements in Marvelous Designer, I believe configuring the character body’s Friction values is just as important as the fabric’s physical properties. Especially when applying animation to a dressed character, these two elements heavily dictate how natural the final result looks.The choreography I worked on featured the fast, intense movements unique to K-POP. Using the default settings caused the clothing to flutter excessively or slide off the body unnaturally. To solve this, I increased the character’s Kinetic Friction value to prevent the outfit from slipping and sliding over the skin.Additionally, I lowered the character model’s Skin Offset below the default value, ensuring the garment didn't look unnaturally afloat but instead clung snugly to the body as if actually worn. These adjustments allowed me to achieve a much more stable and realistic garment simulation.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/494b72aedc3b4b7295bc5c8ab7a3b082Surface.png" alt="494b72aedc3b4b7295bc5c8ab7a3b082" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="494b72aedc3b4b7295bc5c8ab7a3b082" data-width="717" data-height="303"><h1>What features or workflows in MD did you utilize to resolve mesh clipping (collision) or twisting issues that can occur during choreography where arms and legs cross rapidly?</h1>I find that these issues often stem from the character animation itself. When replicating actual choreography, structural collisions or interpenetrations between meshes are bound to happen. Therefore, the priority is to first modify the animation phase to minimize mesh overlapping as much as possible.If issues still persist during the simulation despite that, I check whether the garment is draped correctly in the pre-simulation pose. If the initial setup is off, errors tend to carry over into the subsequent simulation.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/4f45277fbc12443bad4b097ee302e9bfCapture.png" alt="4f45277fbc12443bad4b097ee302e9bf" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="4f45277fbc12443bad4b097ee302e9bf" data-width="3840" data-height="2088">Lastly, I double-check the fabric’s physical properties, the character’s friction values, and the skin offset, resolving the errors by fine-tuning the numbers bit by bit based on where the problem occurs.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/b5d1433350e9420294fb35a6a6676581%E1%84%86%E1%85%AE%E1%86%AF%E1%84%89%E1%85%A5%E1%86%BC.png" alt="b5d1433350e9420294fb35a6a6676581" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="b5d1433350e9420294fb35a6a6676581" data-width="1123" data-height="4353"><h1>How did you adjust the garment’s weight or air resistance to make the character’s dance lines pop even more?</h1>The actual stage outfits from LE SSERAFIM’s 'Spaghetti' that I referenced were jumpsuits made of a lightweight, thin material that wrinkles easily. To replicate that specific texture, I focused on making the fabric’s physical properties as light and flexible as possible.While watching the actual music show performances to study how the clothes moved, I couldn't know the exact numeric values for weight or air resistance. Instead, I ran repeated simulation tests, constantly tweaking the values until the movement closely matched the reference.By meticulously tuning the physical properties based on real-world references, I focused on aligning the garment’s movement to naturally accentuate the character’s dance lines.<img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/98da2c058b2248ad82e0047a66ba3accCapture%281%29.png" alt="98da2c058b2248ad82e0047a66ba3acc" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="98da2c058b2248ad82e0047a66ba3acc" data-width="3840" data-height="2088"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/7f519904abb7402384b3f44ccc1ed60bCapture%283%29.png" alt="7f519904abb7402384b3f44ccc1ed60b" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="7f519904abb7402384b3f44ccc1ed60b" data-width="1401" data-height="1699"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202605/c93d0d5056ac4b87be5dfb853daa110f/images/5c6f7c45de9c4931b6eaf441010ef581LSF_Spaghetti_Still_00001.jpg" alt="5c6f7c45de9c4931b6eaf441010ef581" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="5c6f7c45de9c4931b6eaf441010ef581" data-width="1080" data-height="1920"><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.behance.net/soohwan_art">Behance</a><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/ohso0hwan">Instagram</a>
